Lost in a Good Book: Jorge Borges’ Inescapable Labyrinth

Abstract

“Entrance” is a marvelous example of a heteronym, a word endowed with (at least) two separate pronunciations, each of which has a meaning distinct from the others. In this case, in the context of what I am writing about, the two pronunciations and meanings complement each other very well: Entrance, a place to enter, and: Entrance, to delight and fill with wonder.
